javax.xml.soap.SOAPFactory for creating SOAPElements.public class SOAPElementFactory extends Object
SOAPElementFactory is a factory for XML fragments that
 will eventually end up in the SOAP part. These fragments
 can be inserted as children of the SOAPHeader or
 SOAPBody or SOAPEnvelope.
 Elements created using this factory do not have the properties of an element that lives inside a SOAP header document. These elements are copied into the XML document tree when they are inserted.
